Bubbler or drinking fountain/water fountain?

[bigG]

I can't bring myself to calling this thing a drinking fountain. Bubbler for life, baby!

Germans I know call it a drinking station.

It's bubbler. Not sure why the rest of the country doesn't get that.

I'm glad I found the bubbler at the Kohl Center this weekend. Bought a bottle Thursday night, and probably refilled it 8 times thru Saturday.

The day will come when the remove the bubblers from those venues.

Bubbler by far!  Facial Tissue is Kleenex as well regardless of brand.  Any other products like this?

Here's two interesting reads on the topic...

It is a water fountain. No one outside of WI calls the thing a bubbler. I wish Wisconsin folks would get it.

We wish everyone else would get it. I've only heard bubbler on the east side of the state. But I looked it up and found the following from a valid and reliabele source

"drinking fountain, water fountain or bubbler?

Bubbler is correct- Miriam Webster (himself)"

Dare ya go!

Forgot about this one.  Having lived all over I have accepted ATM or cash machine as the nomenclature.  When they first came out my cousin thought they were gambling machines.  One day my uncle pulled money out and my cousin said in amazement "He won again!  This is amazing!"

Say that in coulee country and they look for a Delorean. One of the first lessons i learned when I moved here. ATM does not equal Tyme machine to these freaks.

Bubbler would be correct.

Bubbler would be correct.

Absolutely. Rest of the country is wrong. I say it everywhere I go, just to learn folks.
